H.N. Moseley to Charles Darwin (5th February, 1876)

Moseley was a naturalist on the Challenger expedition, (1872–6). With this letter, he sends Darwin a Japanese book illustrating the expression of emotions. Although Darwin’s own copy of the book does not survive, we know that he received it as he thanked Moseley a few weeks later. The book was “commonly bought by Europeans in Japan”.
